It's july / august, summer lull for PRC political news, gov officials (including Xi) take breaks / reduce activity around now, no major political meetings or events. So queue retarded western Chinahands with helping dose from

That's part of Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction discussion at UN, ongoing last few years, very slow going because contested. Will be supplementary to UNCLOS if/once passed. TBH there's no way it WON'T single out

Mostly pacific / south america focused to get US coastguard in there and build public opinion against PRC fishing... which is really proxy for hosting PRC ships, aka, imo foot in door to other docking relationships... like PLANavy. PR

Perhaps tax code can gamify building more funding/naming more schools so Chan can keep throwing money at education. At this point probably easier to appeal to 0.01% vanity/legacy than properly tax them.

AFAIK JP doesn't trawl, they're big on transhipment, i.e. PRC, TW, SKR, Spain does stuff off Ecuador, Peru, Argentina and there's shadiness with moving haul to JP transhipment reefers (big fridge boat) i.e. offload catch so t

60/75m (~80%) metric tons of PRC seafood is from domestic aquaculture. That's one of the highest % of aquaculture share out of total fisheries of any country. 60% of global aquashare total. It's not urgent because it's a

JP/SKR/TW all does it brazenly (i.e. pacific / south american EEZs), SKR/TW also with their share of slave labor. They just don't get reported on, or analysis will include them but MSM that inevitably regurgitates t

Even cost of hobby aside (art supply cost already killed middle class visual artists dead), stuff like suno is making mass dabbling and production of competent sounding music a commodity.

Problem is a 40k car interior feels worse than a 15k Chinese car. The Koreans are trying, but like Samsung, not too hard.

Another year another DC China IUU "the worst" propaganda piece, except this time more stupid - already inflated esimate of PRC DWF fleet last year was 18000... now 32000 kek. It's hilarious to see PRC DWF inflation from 3000

I did some playground digging as well! Bailed after getting nasty pinky bite and realized housing an army of them in an elmer glue ant farm crafted by 10 year old me was bad idea.

Neat, reminds me of when I all I wanted was a interior antfarm wall after playing too much sim ants. Cursory research and bummed antfarms aren't nearly as cool in real life.

I think 1) is unlikely, b2 bays can't fit much more, gbu57 is mostly metal and no booster for penetration 2) is what no one knows, but we (as in the public) also don't know layout/construction, i.e. actual depth, bunker desig

It's a pretty dumb ordnance, gravity delivered GBU57 is a physics bound problem. The dimensions etc are known, you can give it the most optmistic assumptions, i.e. complete steel for max penetration, release at altitude where it reach

1. PRC urbanization still has long way to go, rate slowed to ~0.8-1% per year, that's still 10-14 million per year. Current urbanization is ~65%, goal is 70% by 2030s, but "urbanized" by east asian standards like SKR, JP is ~

Economic profit should approach zero under perfect competition in the long run. PRC industrial policy compresses this process. Not just because it coordinates a lot of resources, but PRC scale also generates stupid amounts of players to thr

The joke/reputation of entry-level BYD in PRC a few years ago is that it's QA is almost as bad as Tesla from Shanghai, which has better QA than Tesla from other gigafactories. That was from when BYD was scaling up from 500k to 3mi

How big are the portions if this is their one meal? Enough that skipping bread is a problem for waistline? Is this one of those places where you get a 3000 calorie plate and take some stuff home for another meal.

You can probably get unsuspecting couriers to deliver last mile. Build a drone dock with cutter to open top of boxes. Mail a weaponized drone to an address within range of target.
